There is mounting evidence throughout the world that democracy is in retreat. This can be stopped and repaired by infusing it with action, beliefs, and knowledge. This book offers a powerful prescription to stop the democracy deficit disorder: authentically engaging young people throughout our democracy. Through critical thinking and substantive actions, adults can become allies to young people. This will lead to authentic youth engagement, which will make democracy more meaningful, purposeful, and sustainable than ever before.
Adam F.C. Fletcher is an internationally recognized expert in youth engagement, co-founder of the Freechild Institute and SoundOut.org, and author of more than a dozen books.
J. Cynthia McDermott earned her Ed.D at Temple University and has received 3 Fulbright awards. Emeritus from Antioch University, her publications are related to democracy and Foxfire practices.
